I always thought The Makemakes was a disappointing choice. First of all I hoped for a big name, at least when you organize the whole thing, damn. Then, when I heard the songs in the national final I selected Zoe as the better entry for a good placement in the final voting but, people and juries picked something different. Sure, Austria thought they would have reach a position in the middle of the chart... never expected a big fat zero.

I really hope for another NF this year. Though the outcome of the contest was not as we wished, it was great to have one.
If not - send Zoe with a french (YES! a FRENCH) song (even if EVERYBODY speaks english and french has NOTHING to do with Austria, and so on....).

She was supposed to be the green room host and she got much more protagonism than the actual hosts. The people seeing ESC with me thought she was the main host and the other 3 the co-hosts
Even though in the final I think she appeared as much as her role asked for. But in the semi-finals it was almost only her.
